you are about to take. 1ne news has
been cried along the golden streets and
has rung out from the towers, "A soul
saved! A soul savedl" But there is some
one here to- day who will reject this Gospel.
He will stay out of the kingdom of God
himself. He will keep his family and his
friends out. 1t is q dreadful thing for q
man just to plant himself in the way Of
life, then keep back his children, keep
back his companion in life, keep back his
business partners-refuse to go into
heaven himself and refuse to let others
60 in.
A young man, at the close of religious
service, was asked to decide the matter OF
his souls salvation. He said: IT will not
do it tonight" Well, the Christian man
kept talking with him, and he said "I in-
sist that tonight you either take God or
reject Him." swell, " said the young man,
"if you put it that way, l will reject Him.
There, now, the matters settled" On his
way home on horseback he knew not that
tree had fallen .aslant the road,
and he was going at full speed, and
he struck the obstacle and dropped life
less. That night his Christian mother
heard the riderless horse plunging about
the barn, and, mistrusting something ter
rible was the matter, she went out and
came to the place where her son lay, and
she cried out: "Oh, Henry! dead and not
Christian. Oh, my sonl my son dead and
not Christian. Oh, Henry! Henry! dead
and not Christian" God keep us from
such q catastrophe.

A FAMILY GOES INSANE
Over an Odd Case---Charlss BOerRer, of
Canton, the Innocent Cause.

Over an Odd Case---Charles BOerRer, OF
Canton, the Innocent Cause.
A strange story reaches the ears of
DEMOCRAT reporter to day Of q family Of
three persons, consisting OF man and
wife with one daughter, becoming
infatuated with young CsntOnian, the
result of which has become a mania In
the family and has dethrOned the reason
of the father and partially that of the
| mother.
About eighteen months ago Charles
BOerner, son Of Leonard Boerner, of this
city, left his home In Canton and lOca-
ted In Minerva, Ohio, where he en-
Oarked In the bakery business.
While thus engaged he became ac-
quainted with the family Of Oliver
Morledge, who are we'll to do people and
much respected in the village. The
mother seems to have suddenly be-
come exceedingly fond of BOerner,
aud extended him the privileges of the
house and sssiste him in his business,
Mr.. MOrledge having started him In
business. Finally tn, y took him into
the house as one of the family, saying
to friends and neighbors that BOeIner
was to take the hand of their daughter
n marriage, which BOerner Intended to
do.
Everything progressed lovely until
abou. week ago when Mrs. Morledge
visited ths bakery and found Boerner
playing cards with some of his young
friends. Being opposed to card playing,
she asked from him a promise Of refOr-
nation, but being refused tnis cOnces-
sion she suddenly became seriously de-
mented.
Mr.. Morledge brOoded over the matter
until on Tuesday he became a raVing
maniac requiring several male attend
ants to keep him quiet. The daughter
is seriously Frustrated and she Is now at
the home of a neighbor.
The persons connected with this
strange affair have the heartfelt sympa-
thy Of the community In which they
live, as they are all highly respected
people.
Mr.. BOerner has pursued an honorable
course in the matter and feels greatly
distressed. He is willing to do anything
In his power to mend matters.
